A tank contains 90 kg of salt and 2000 L of water. Pure water enters a tank at the rate 6 L/min. The solution is mixed and drain

s from the tank at the rate 3 L/min.
(a) What is the amount of salt in the tank initially? (in kg)

(b) Find the amount of salt in the tank after 3.5 hours. (in kg)

(c) Find the concentration of salt in the solution in the tank as time approaches infinity. (Assume your tank is large enough to hold all the solution.) ( in kg/L)

Answer:

a) 90 kg

b) 68.4 kg

c) 0 kg/L

Explanation:

Mass balance:

-w=\frac{dm}{dt}

w is the mass flow

m is the mass of salt

-v*C=\frac{dm}{dt}

v is the volume flow

C is the concentration

C=\frac{m}{V+(6-3)*L/min*t}

-v*\frac{m}{V+(6-3)*L/min*t}=\frac{dm}{dt}

-3*L/min*\frac{m}{2000L+(3)*L/min*t}=\frac{dm}{dt}

-3*L/min*\frac{dt}{2000L+(3)*L/min*t}=\frac{dm}{m}

-3*L/min*\int_{0}^{t}\frac{dt}{2000L+(3)*L/min*t}=\int_{90kg}^{m}\frac{dm}{m}

-[ln(2000L+3*L/min*t)-ln(2000L)]=ln(m)-ln(90kg)

-ln[(2000L+3*L/min*t)/2000L]=ln(m/90kg)

m=90kg*[2000L/(2000L+3*L/min*t)]

a) Initially: t=0

m=90kg*[2000L/(2000L+3*L/min*0)]=90kg

b) t=210 min (3.5 hr)

m=90kg*[2000L/(2000L+3*L/min*210min)]=68.4kg

c) If time trends to infinity the  division trends to 0 and, therefore, m trends to 0. So, the concentration at infinit time is 0 kg/L.

Identify the molecule that effuses the fastest ch4 co ar or co2
Ksju [112]
<span>CH4 will effuse the fastest. The speed of effusion is proportional to the speed of the gas molecules with faster molecules effusing fast than slower molecules. And the speed of the molecules at any given temperature is inversely related to the mass of the molecules with lighter molecules being faster. So let's take a look at the mass of the candidate molecules and see which is lighter and therefore faster. CH4 - Molar mass is about 16. CO - Molar mass is about 28 Ar - Molar mass is about 40 CO2 - Molar mass is about 44 If the 4 options, CH4 (methane) is by far the lightest, and therefore the fastest, so will effuse faster than the other 3 gasses.</span>
